Stressed Out

A survey of 6,500 women across 21 different nations by Nielsen found that 87% of Indian women said they felt stressed most of the time, with 82% claiming they had no time to relax. More than two in three women in Mexico, Russia and Brazil were stressed out. Swedish, Malaysian and South Korean reported the least stress.

The survey found that Indian women were the most likely to splurge on themselves — 96% on clothes and 75% on health and beauty products.
